Our Water and Storm Damage Process in St. Clair
-
Answer, Dispatch and Stop the Water
We answer 24/7 and send a crew down from Port Huron. The first job on site is stopping the water: shutting off a supply line, getting a sump running again, or tarping a roof so the next rain stays out.
-
Trace Where the Water Went
Water from a roof or a pipe rarely stays where it started. We follow it with moisture meters and a thermal camera through ceilings, wall cavities and basement framing, and we map every wet area for your adjuster.
-
Extract and Remove What Cannot Be Saved
Standing water comes out with truck-mounted extraction. Soaked carpet pad, insulation and drywall below the wet line come out; framing, trim and flooring that can dry in place stay.
-
Dry, Clean and Check the Readings
Dehumidifiers and air movers run around the clock, and every wet surface gets an antimicrobial treatment. We take readings every day and pull the equipment only when the materials test dry.
-
Rebuild and Close the Claim
The same crew puts back drywall, insulation, flooring and trim. You get the photos, the moisture readings and the line-item scope in one file for your insurer.
Local Crews, St. Clair Response
St. Clair sits on the St. Clair River between Marysville and Marine City, with St. Clair Township wrapped around it. We work both from our shop on Minnie St in Port Huron, a short drive up the river, so a call from St. Clair at two in the morning gets the same crews and the same trucks as a call from downtown Port Huron.
The houses here run from older homes near downtown and the riverfront to newer builds out in the township. Many have basements, and many of those basements depend on a sump pump through the spring thaw and the heavy rain that follows. Winter brings ice dams on low roofs and pipes that split inside exterior walls. On the commercial side, flat roofs on shops and offices leak after wind and heavy rain, and the water often shows up somewhere other than where it got in.
You get one crew from the first call to the final repair, and one file your adjuster can work from: photos, moisture readings and a line-item scope.

Insurance Claims for St. Clair Homes and Businesses
- A burst pipe or a failed supply line is the sudden kind of loss a homeowners policy is written for. Your adjuster gets our moisture map, photos of every room and a line-item scope, and we bill the carrier directly.
- Basement water from a failed sump or a backed-up drain usually falls under a water backup endorsement, not the base policy. We document it the same way whether or not you file.
- Storm and roof leak claims on shops, offices and rentals get the same file, written so a commercial carrier or a property manager can act on it.

St. Clair Questions
Do you come down to St. Clair at night and on weekends?
Yes. The phone is answered 24/7, holidays included, and our crews drive down from Port Huron at any hour. Tell us what is wet and whether the water is still coming in, and we will tell you what to do until we get there.
Can you find where a commercial roof leak is coming from?
We find where the water went. Our moisture meters and thermal camera show how far it spread through the ceiling, the insulation and the walls, and that usually points back toward the source. We tarp or cover the opening, extract the water and dry the building; the permanent roof repair belongs to your roofer, and we document what they and your insurer need.
My sump pump failed and the basement flooded. Is that covered?
Often, but usually under a water backup endorsement rather than the base homeowners policy, so check your declarations page or ask your agent. Either way we extract the water, dry the basement and document the loss for the claim.
Do you work in St. Clair Township too, or only the city?
Both, plus Marysville and Marine City on either side. Our trucks cover the whole stretch of the river south of Port Huron.
